Is the Rechargeable Lithium-ion Polymer Battery (Internal) replaceable? What IS the usable time on the battery?

The battery is replaceable if you can find a company who would still source such a battery. I found one online some years ago. There are about 7 screws that would be removed to open the bottom cover. Once the bottom was carefully opened, the battery would just unplug from a small connector on the main board. You could take that battery to a store specializing in rechargeable batteries to see if they can fashion a replacement. When the battery was new, the device would usually last through a whole day's normal use.

Yes it is But you have to be careful with the small screws in the back. You'll need a small phillips screw driver and make sure not to over thread the screws.

You cannot replace the rechargeable lithium battery that comes w/ the unit, however, the battery capacity and life span will hold more than enough charges to satisfy even the most active users. Thank you. IZZO Golf

The package states "self recharging battery", but nothing in the package insert indicates it is replaceable. There also does not appear to be an easy way to open the unit. Try to contact the manufacturer and let me know what you find out.

It doesn't look like it is replaceable. I remove the back cover and when I saw it it's a very long and flat style battery. but it does last a long time on the ECO. MODE.

Hi, from what i know the battery is non replaceable nor can you replace it. But gives up to 8-10 hours of play time. I leave mine off charge at home to maintain battery life. All said this is one great device. The build quality is excellent and the sound is great.

A Li-ion polymer battery that is not "user-replaceable" but if you have some experience in basic electronics you can buy one in comparable size to replace with. Make sure to remove the small circuit board from the old battery assembly and use the new battery cell soldered onto the old board to ensure the battery can be charged. If you replace the battery assembly without keeping the old board, your new battery won't be charged via the USB cable like before. Do google search and you'll find an in-depth post I made on Plantronics forum. I also uploaded a picture of how the battery is housed in 995H on Amazon so you'll be able to see it first. My battery lasted for about one year before I noticed the capacity declined, and then another year to a point where the battery couldn't even last for one phone call.

I really don't know I don't think you can actually replace the internal battery or even if they actually sell it, I'm sorry I could not be of any help

It's a lithium battery, yes its rechargeable, however the one I purchased was defective and I couldn't determine how long the charge would last. I returned the product and currently waiting on a refund.

You should not need to replace the battery during normal life, it is LI-iON battery and would last 10+ years, latest battery technology. It is not user replaceable but can be sent in for service replacement if ever a need. I own LI-iON batteries for my RC cars, never gone bad!

Yes, the rechargeable batteries are replaceable. It's a NI-MH battery pack with a connector as is used in cordless phones.

Yes the internal battery can be recharged. Have only had to recharge it once and did that in the evening leaving it on all night. I haven't found anything yet that would show the status of the battery, or it's level of charge.

I don't think it's possible to replace the internal battery. The charger isn't made to access the internal battery.

Internal rechargeable battery probably can't be replaced..but I have had mine for years and recharged dozens of times

There are some batteries that can be replaced. There is apparently another internal battery that can only be replaced by sending back to factory. It is claimed to have a long life.

It has an internal battery. You can recharge it using the micro usb connector, but cannot change it (at least, there is no easy access to it).

Hi, I do not think the battery is replaceable. I have about 250 songs on mine and I charge it about every 8 to 10 days. I only use it at the gym for an hour and a half every day. It does charge with the USB cable. Thanks, Pete

The battery is inside the housing. Not sure if it is replaceable. I doubt it. It wasn't touted as having a replaceable battery.
